Chapter 581 - Plans And Plots
Angor found his memories coming back.
He also heard someone talking while approaching him. Unfortunately, his vision was too blurry to see clearly, and he only saw someone taller who was wearing that signature gentleman suit.
“What did you see?” The speaker’s voice was hoarse and a little bit stern, yet it was comforting.
“I… I saw him. He has those green marks all over him. And he’s inside my bedroom.”
Those words might appear random and incomprehensible to anyone else, but Sunders knew what they meant.
“You mean the blond-haired nightmare monster is in your bedroom?”
Angor nodded as he fully recovered from his trance.
Sunders didn’t question Angor further and turned to Maya next. “Did you see the conclusion? Is his right hand going to affect him in particular ways?”
“To apprentices and mortals though… this is a world-ending catastrophe,” said Sunders.
They spent a moment in grim silence.
“Are you still up for it?” Sunders asked. He then added, “I wish to know why Mister Monkey would go so far as to provoke a Grand Demon… will he really achieve the rank of a legendary wizard by doing so?”
“I know you’re going to ask that,” Maya shook her head and said, “and no, it’s not something I can predict. Even a master prophet from Starliege Temple cannot give you a definite answer.
“But I can tell you something else, which I heard from Brilliance Plane: ‘The south is shrouded in darkness, yet the new sun will rise again’. It’s time for a calamity to strike, and it remains to be seen whether the miracle will descend upon Mister Monkey.”
Sunders nodded. “Isabelle has returned. It’s only a fragment of her soul, but I think her newly-found destiny will bring yet another… uncertain factor, into the turmoil.”
“Perhaps. But not too much. By the way, I heard your little boy has some interesting connections with Isabelle as well. Care to share?”
The return of Isabelle had already been known by most people, yet only a few knew what exactly happened when she arrived at Dark Castle. Sunders was also one of those informed since his student was the one who personally talked to Isabelle.
Without holding back, Sunders explained what he learned.
“Mystery item? I was right when I said that new student of yours is brilliant,” Maya exclaimed. “I wonder how jubilant Old Rein looks right now. When was the last time Brute Cavern had a master alchemist? Some centuries ago?”
“He’s still far from that,” Sunders chose to be modest, but quickly revealed a proud smile as he said, “and when it happens, he’ll keep going and reach a level no one has ever seen before.”
He’s actually showing off! Maya complained in her mind. Comparisons… the root of jealousy.
“Oh, one last thing. To how far should I assist with Mister Monkey’s plan?” asked Sunders.
